    I have just come across this topic and though old thought that the following maybe of interest.  I know that before insurers can even contact you with an offer they have to do a soft search.  This is why you will often see insurance brokers, etc names on your reports even though you have never contacted them.  It may have come via the post, email etc.  Now this could also be done by others including any form of finance and that includes credit cards.
    Complete nonsense.

    Nobody "has" to soft search anyone.

    What a load of rubbish they don’t have to do soft searches at all to contact you. 

    You will see insurance brokers and finance companies soft searches on your credit report because A) You’ve been looking for an insurance product such as car insurance or house insurance. B) if you’ve used something such as MSE credit club or other comparison site for credit card product. 

    Also why bother resurrecting an old thread with something that didn’t really need to be said or relevant to the Who is newday thread!! 
    Time is a path from the past to the future and back again. The present is the crossroads of both. :cool:
